I think he is bullshitting.

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

This note from HK also says the 12th as does the stuff from the WHO. [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2021-01-19 at 8.22.42 pm.png]

Why did not a single person in the world see the sequences on the 10th? Something does not make sense here at all.

The post was on the 11th at about 1am GMT - the posting has at the top the 10th because that is when we started towrite it (of course it was already the 11th in Australia and China then). So that is probably the confusion about your post.

I know. And no one at GISAID, CCDC, WHO made any announcement until the 12th. Plus they hounded Zhang for it?

I posted a follow up to your post at 12pm on the 12th saying some genomes were up on GISAID.

Correct. I'm sure I remember looking on GISAID initially and not seeing anything and then looking again and they were there. That HK press release is very informative. I'm sorry, but I just don't believe him.
